Have been diligently busy going over Doug's 1992 paper, "Toward
High-Performance Organizations: A Strategic Role for Groupware" (
http://www.bootstrap.org/augdocs/augment-132811.htm )
and it struck me that CoDIAK is a very close relative of Seymour
Papert's constructionism, which in itself is a direct descendant of,
what educators call, constructivism.

Actually, quite aside from this, I am asking myself if it would not be
better to appeal to the non-corporate world instead of the corporate
world for the propagation of Doug's ideas.
When I see Steve Balmer, the president of one of the most powerful
corporations in the world behaving like a rank idiot (
http://www.ntk.net/ballmer/dancemonkeyboy.mpg - 3MB ) presumably because
he considers his audience and corporate America as birds of a feather,
then I have some misgivings about Doug getting corporate support. But,
then again, maybe the salary men and women serving below the executive
suites, on the floors where the term "professionalism" has some real
meaning, will have a better appreciation of what Doug is talking about.

The world's most urgent, complex problems, I hazard a guess, are found
within the communal, public domain. Emissions, global warming, cloning,
etc., all of which require a common appreciation through CoDIAK
supported by a public OHS. Part of Doug's 1992 paper deals with deatils
of OHS design (pars. 7E - 7S, 8B - 8E). It is quite an exercise when
contemplating the outcome of this all in terms an individual's way of
"using one's head."
